Joyrex Posted July 20, 2015 Report Share Posted July 20, 2015 From Slashdot: http://entertainment.slashdot.org/story/15/07/20/2054237/grooveshark-co-founder-josh-greenberg-dead-at-28 Quote The tech startup world has been shaken today by news that 28-year-old Josh Greenberg, co-founder of recently defunct music sharing service Grooveshark, was found dead on Sunday in the Florida apartment he shared with his girlfriend. No foul play is suspected, but the local medical examiner is conducting an autopsy, according to the Gainesville Sun. Grooveshark was shut down in April after the company was threatened with legal action and possibly hundreds of millions in damages by several big music labels. I'm guessing suicide based on that last sentence...

chim Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 I thought that they didn't face legal action as they closed down the service? It was a very stupid business from day one, and I can't say I enjoyed seeing my material on there without permission, but it's sad that he had to go that early, could've easily redeemed himself with a new business idea. I'm guessing drugs?
